Southwest Rice and Black Beans

Servings: 4 -6 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1 can black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 can Rotel
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1-2 cups Cheddar Cheese or Pepper Jack Cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a baking dish with non-stick spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the beans, rotel, cumin and salt and pepper with the rice.
  • Pour into pan. Cover with cheese. Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted.
  • Serve with a scoop of guacamole and/or a dollop of sour cream (I recommend both).

Notes

I love this meal because clean up is also a snap. I cook the rice in a dish that is also oven-proof so it is truly a one-dish meal. Score!
